Teenage Pregnancy and Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health Behavior in Suhum, Ghana
Quist-Adade, Charles
European Journal of Educational Sciences, v4 n1 p1-17 Mar 2017
This study sought to investigate the key factors that influence teenage reproductive and sexual behaviours and how these behaviours are likely to be influenced by parenting styles of primary caregivers of adolescents in Suhum, in Eastern Ghana. The study aimed to identify risky sexual and reproductive behaviours and their underlying factors among in-school and out-of-school adolescents and how parenting styles might play a role. While the data from the study provided a useful snapshot and a clear picture of sexual and reproductive behaviours of the teenagers surveyed, it did not point to any strong association between parental styles and teens' sexual reproductive behaviours.
